Figure 4. The use of ternary diagrams allows to plot the relationships between bedload, suspended load and lofting facies, and to show the position of the studied locality respect to the system as a whole. In a single well, ternary analysis can be useful to determine sedimentary trends (progradation/ retrogradation) between different depositional sequences.
